"Here and Now"
  by Beautiful Soul


Angels On The Moon - Thriving Ivory

Was I born to die
Or did I die to be reborn?

Somewhere in between space
Life and death coincides
Somehow collides
Into a purpose

Were memories preserved
Only to decay time?
Recovering moments to cry
Tears only seem to fall
In a desperate attempt
To discover laughter

So why

Do u wish to find me
Beneath the soil
Or above the stars?

Here and now
Is our time

Whether it is what we wanted
Or asked for
The gift of a kiss
A breathless wish
The simplicity in the tap of life
The smile across your face

Inside of certainty
Realism authenticates fantasy
I do stare

Feeling the unity of blood
Cascade through the stream of veins
A flood of love
Overflowing… just to end up no where?

I have lived outside myself
Walked across the sky
Reached you
Touching vigorously
Digging deep into your weary soul
To unearth some happiness

Smothered you across my skin
Exposing... my own neediness
Deprived our destiny
To live within a dream

So why do you wish to wake me?

Within my slumber, I am alive
Here and now
With you forever

Dreams are the only place where we will be suspended forever in time yet like life they end too fast. Ehhh I believe that we are born to do what we can with the time given and then die to become part of the bigger picture. Now don't mistake the fact that I took this position on this poem and overlooked the rest. Its just the first three stanzas stood out to me and by the end I realized you went somewhere else. But my mind was still stuck on those stanzas. Get me? Its kinda hard to explain n I th...

this piece is beyound words....as crazy as it may sound sometimes when don't wan't to be awaken from of our dreams. They become our hope and keeps us going to escape the coldness of reality. And when yesterdays become to painful to remember and tomorrows look too far you just have to live and enjoy the moments for here and now. peace

Such a song eh...every one has the right to dream...and reality has the right to impose itself upon the dreamer...in light of the negative that some how provides a positive...at the end of it all...love suffers not...
